A photograph of a seated figure on a brown leather throne-style chair at the front of a hall, wearing a red-orange turban, a rudraksha mala and a gold pendant over an orange-saffron garment, holding a silver trident staff. Before him sit a large gathering of devotees in white and red-orange shawls printed with script, many wearing black blindfolds, some seated on white floor cushions. Behind them stands a tall tree with autumn-orange foliage and white display panels with framed photographs. The seated figure is identifiable only by appearance cues: saffron clothing, a turban, rudraksha mala and trident, which is a probable Swamiji (probable) presiding over the satsang as teacher.
